BR’s “Best” In Running For 2010

1) 2nd Edition of BDM 102—Better administration and conduct of the event with lesser manpower; more runner-participants; slowly getting exposure and awareness in the running community; runners from overseas increased; and finally dubbed as the “longest solo running event in the country today”.

2) Jeju & Soochow Ultramarathon Events—Exposure of our local elite athletes to IAU-sanctioned events proved to be beneficial. As a Race Organizer, more information and technology had been absorbed, studied and applied. Meeting and talking to the “Gods” of Ultrarunning in these events was one of the best experiences!

“Uh-Oh! I Did It Again”

On By kingofpotsIn Insights, Jogging, Runners Injury, Runners' Training, Running, Stretching, Ultramarathon11 Comments

Two days after the 2nd Quezon City International Marathon, I went to Camp Aguinaldo to have my recovery run. I planned to have one loop of the 7K-loop course with a slow pace. However, after running for about 5 kilometers, I slowly increased my pace up to the finish line. But my workout changed when I felt my 7K run was not enough. So, I decided to continue my run with a goal to finish 10K for the day. Continue reading ““Uh-Oh! I Did It Again”” →

“At Last!”

On By kingofpotsIn Insights, Jogging, Pictures, Running10 Comments

 At last, the Bald Runner is featured on a Cover Page of a Magazine! I would be a hypocrite if I don’t accept the fact that I’ve been longing to appear in one of the Sports/Running Magazines that are in publication right now. Last year, one of the lady runners asked me why I am not being featured in some of the sports magazines since almost all the runners read my blog and always see me in weekend road races. I answered her that the publisher/s might be afraid to ask me such proposal because of my background as a retired General of the Armed Forces of the Philippines. Or it could be a other way around, my appearance might be a “down-turner” and does not have an appeal to the readers. Their reasons could be both but I really don’t know!

Running In Newspapers

On By kingofpotsIn Insights, Jogging, Pictures, Races, Running, Travel, Ultramarathon1 Comment

A day after the Soochow International Ultramarathon 24-Hour Endurance Run, I randomly bought two daily newspapers in one of the 7-11 Stores in Taipei, Taiwan in order to find out how the media in this country treat a running event in their newspapers.

I don’t know how to read and understand what were printed in such newspapers but by looking at the pictures, the newspapers depict how the media treats this yearly international running event. Continue reading “Running In Newspapers” →

Martin Fryer: Ultrarunner From Australia

On By kingofpotsIn Insights, Jogging, Pictures, Races, Runners' Training, Running, Trail Running, Ultramarathon2 Comments

Martin Fryer was the first ultrarunner whom I met at Soochow University and he happens to be from Australia. I started to know him when we had a conversation over lunch with the Race Director of the event, Frank Kou and I spent more time to talk to him later in the afternoon. I did not ask him about his past feats and credentials in ultrarunning as I could easily “Google” his name on the Internet. Continue reading “Martin Fryer: Ultrarunner From Australia” →

A Trip To Batanes: A Dream Come True

A Trip To Batanes: A Dream Come True

Having been born and lived in Ilocos Norte and stayed for almost three years in Cagayan Province when I was in High School, I have heard already about the northern most province of the Philippine archipelago which is called the Batanes Group of Islands. I would hear stories about the place and its people from my father who was then a Principal in one of the Agricultural Schools in Cagayan and later as a Regional Supervisor of the Department of Education. He would always say nice things about the place and its people. With his stories, I would believe that he had been on those islands of Batanes in connection with his job then.

Inspirational Blogs

Of course, for runners!

When I am tired of reading books, I usually browse to these inspirational blogs which happen to be the blogsites of the top mountain trail runners in the United States. Yes, these elite trail runners are very good writers and they are very transparent in their daily journals and in their race reports. They follow the same principle of “consistency” in their training as well as in their writing to update their blogs! Continue reading “Inspirational Blogs” →

The Cost Of Running

The Cost Of Running…Outside The Country

  1. In my recollection, it was only Albert Salazar aka Run2DMoon who posted in his blog the expenses and cost that he has to spend in his training and sometimes, his expenses in participating to road races, to include his past BDM 102 editions. In summary, it showed that training and joining to road races entail a lot of money from one’s pocket. However, I have yet to read his story on his running costs if ever he had joined a race outside the country. This gives me to go to my next topic. Continue reading “The Cost Of Running” →
